Case Study: Citi Bank boosts application development speed with Cloud Foundry

Citi Bank - Customer Case Study

Citi Bank, the global financial services firm behind Citigroup Inc., needed to speed up innovation and delivery in the face of fintech competition while modernizing its heavily monolithic IT environment. Working with Cloud Foundry, Citi set out to move its Treasury and Trade Solutions division away from a slow waterfall model and toward faster, more agile software development.

Cloud Foundry helped Citi build a microservices-based, cloud-agnostic platform supporting a multi-cloud environment and significant on-premises needs, while teams adopted scrum, DevOps pipelines, and more collaborative ways of working. The result was a 57% increase in application development speed, with Citi able to release software far more frequently and align development, compliance, and business teams around faster innovation.
